Cookie Policy

Last updated: January 2025

Like most websites, maxonflux.com uses small text files stored on your device to help us understand how people interact with our platform. We're committed to transparency about what data we collect and why.

This policy explains what tracking technologies we use, what they do, and how you can manage them. We keep things straightforward because your privacy matters.

What Are These Tracking Technologies?

When you visit maxonflux.com, small pieces of data get stored in your browser. Most people call them cookies, though we also use similar technologies like local storage and session tokens.

Think of them as memory aids for your browser. They remember things like whether you've logged in, what settings you prefer, or which pages you've visited. Without them, you'd need to re-enter information every single time you clicked to a new page.

Some stay around for months. Others disappear the moment you close your browser. The duration depends on what they're meant to accomplish.

Types We Use on maxonflux.com

Essential

These keep the platform functional. They handle authentication, maintain your session, and ensure code review features work properly. You can't disable these without breaking core functionality.

Functional

These remember your preferences—things like interface settings, notification choices, or how you like to view code diffs. They make your experience feel personalized rather than generic.

Analytics

We track how people navigate the site so we can identify confusing workflows or features nobody uses. This helps us focus development effort where it actually matters.

Performance

These monitor loading times and identify bottlenecks. When code review features feel sluggish, performance data tells us where to optimize.

We don't use advertising cookies or sell your browsing data to third parties. Our business model doesn't depend on that kind of tracking.

Specific Examples from Our Platform

Authentication and Sessions

When you log into maxonflux.com, we store a session token. This proves you're authenticated without making you re-enter credentials every time you navigate between code reviews or project dashboards.

These tokens expire after a set period of inactivity for security purposes. If you select "remember me" during login, we'll store a longer-lasting token so you don't need to sign in as frequently.

Interface Preferences

Your choice of syntax highlighting theme gets saved locally. Same with your preferred line wrap settings, font size adjustments, or whether you want file trees expanded by default. These preferences persist across sessions so you don't need to reconfigure things constantly.

Code Review Workflows

When you're mid-review, we track which files you've already examined and where you left comments. This prevents duplicate work and helps you pick up where you left off if you get interrupted.

Usage Analytics

We collect aggregated data about which features get used most. For instance, if nobody clicks the advanced diff comparison tool, maybe it's poorly designed or hidden in the interface. Analytics help us spot these issues without us having to guess.

Managing Your Settings

You have several options for controlling tracking technologies on maxonflux.com.

Browser Controls

Every modern browser lets you manage cookies through its settings menu. You can block them entirely, delete existing ones, or configure exceptions for specific sites.

  • Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
  • Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
  • Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
  • Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies

Keep in mind that blocking essential cookies will break core functionality. You won't be able to log in or use the code review features properly.

Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies have set expiration dates—anywhere from 30 days to 12 months depending on their purpose.

We regularly audit and delete data we no longer need. If you delete your maxonflux.com account, we remove associated tracking data within 30 days.

Third-Party Services

We use a few external services that set their own cookies:

  • Analytics platforms that help us understand traffic patterns and user behavior across the site
  • Error monitoring tools that capture technical issues so our development team can fix bugs quickly
  • Content delivery networks that speed up page loading by serving static files from servers closer to your location

These services operate under their own privacy policies. We've chosen providers that align with our commitment to user privacy, but you should review their policies if you want complete transparency about their data practices.

Changes to This Policy

We update this document when we add new tracking technologies or change how we use existing ones. Significant changes get announced through email notifications to active users.

The "last updated" date at the top of this page always reflects the most recent revision. Check back occasionally if you want to stay current with our practices.
